Moving On

Here I am again--on the flip side of a project, with no deadlines in sight.

Almost.

In the mail this weekend, I received my prize booty from the Quilters Treasure challenge. It was some cotton batting and a yard of the challenge fabric for this year. The theme for the contest is "What Memories are Made Of."

Now I'm wracking my brain to think of what kind of quilt I could make out of these ingredients. Dangit! Their marketing schemes have worked on me!

The longer I spend in my own skin, the more I realize one profound truth; life and I are both complicated. We're not so easily distilled down to one trait, one interest, one topic to explore. I skate, I quilt, I cook, I struggle with depression, I love. Most of all, I write. So, here it all is, like the big jumble of words, feelings, fears, and triumphs rolling around in my head.

Quilts in 2008

2008 was all about taking a break from quilting. After the mondo heartache suffered during the construction of the Grandma quilt, I had a hard time bringing myself back into the quilting fray. Couple that with planning a wedding and all the aftermath that entailed, and 2008 was all but lost. Even so, here they are--quilts completed in 2008:

The quilts, they have come, and the quilts, they have gone. Overall, they have gone remarkably well this year as the quality and quantity of my work has increased exponentially. Here's to the International Quilt Festival and actually taking some classes! Here's a list (in chronological order) of the quilts I've completed this year.
